Glad it was helpful! 😊

If you wish to use fountain pens on your travels in the future look into a brand called Opus 88. They are japanese eyedropper style pens that have a shutoff stopper so ink from the main chamber cannot burp out when it is closed. Also they have a huge ink capacity so no extra ink supplies are needed when away from home.

This is incredibly helpful! Thank you so much 😊

Hi Dear friend, so happy to see this video of yours, it was so interesting to see your set up and I always love to hear you talk about stationery. My set up is a bit different, I put only one notebook per cover, or two notebooks but never more (because they get so thick and chunky!). I loved how you set up your TN and it is so amazing to see how much you write! That made me so happy. I use Gel Pen from Rico Design for everyday journaling and I also love the Faber Castle pens, if you haven't tried them, give them a try! They have different nibs sizes and I just love how they make my handwriting look so polished and beautiful. The pens you use look amazing, I was blown away by the change in your writing from pen to pen. The uni pen made your handwriting looks so so so beautiful, like a beautiful classic font. Enjoyed this video so much! Enjoy your time in Ireland this summer!

You’re incredibly kind. Thank you for your well wishes and helpful insight. I have never heard of Rico Design or Faber Castle pens. I will have to try them out. And you’re absolutely right. Three notebooks in TN can make it very chunky, but I’ve found success somehow. I am still looking forward to your new videos when you get there again! Hope to speak again soon.

@@alexanderwrites_ Oh that is so sweet of you! I learnt about Faber Castell when I started drawing and quickly started using them for writing as well. Rico Design company is not a specific company for pens but their black gel pen is the perfect DUPE for those who can't order Muji pens (they're basically the same). I miss Traveler's Notebooks so much, hope to go back to writing in my journal real soon. Same with KZread. If I come back to making videos, it will be because of the encouragement of amazing friends like you! Hopefully soon. P.S. I wrote you a letter! will send it really soon, I believe next week!

Great setup. Much neater than mine. Mine’s a mess. Great video!

Thank you! 😊

I'm a fan of Lochby products. I'm intrigued regarding what's next from them!

Yeah, it will be interesting where the brand goes! Personally, a bag or backpack would be super cool.

What is the protrusion on the top left corner of the notebook when it is closed? Does in prevent the notebook from laying flat when open?

Are you referring to the green notebook? That is a pen clip and it is removable. If you’re referring to the Traveler’s Notebook, that is the zipper from the plastic pouch insert.

If you want to travel with a fountain pen, you just need to keep it store upright with the nib facing upwards.

And this will prevent any leakage of ink? Including the pressure of airplane cabins?

@@alexanderwrites_ Yes, it definitely does. Just store your fountain pens upright and they'll be fine. No piston-type needed, though I have to admit, they are a bit more convenient when flying since you don't have to care.

I travel all over the world with a fountain pen You just need a vacuum or piston fill type However, I have also never had a problem with any TWSBI on a plane

Thanks for the information! I will look into this further. I have a TWSBI Go that is great, but I have never explored their other products.
